Malignant Gastrointestinal Neuroectodermal Tumor, a Rare Neoplasm, Presenting With Hemoperitoneum and Malena: A Case Report.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Malignant gastrointestinal neuroectodermal tumor (GNET) are rare malignant mesenchymal tumors. The tumor can present with various symptoms like abdominal pain, anorexia, or small bowel obstruction. Here, we present a case of small intestinal GNET who presented with gastrointestinal bleed and hemoperitoneum, a rare presentation of this disease. This patient was misdiagnosed initially as Crohn's disease and treated for the same. However, non-response to the standard treatment and onset of new symptoms like malena and ascites raised the suspicion of some alternate diagnosis. Exploratory laparotomy showed the presence of hemoperitoneum along with a mass, 100 cm proximal to ileo-cecal junction. She was successfully treated with surgical resection and anastomosis. Histopathology, immunohistochemistry (diffuse positivity for S100 and weak positivity for synaptophysin) and molecular fluorescence in-situ hybridization (FISH) study (translocation involving the chromosomal region 2212.1-q12.2 which harbors
